    Using Samsung Galaxy for just a mp3 player without activation

    Thank you both. I thought the apps could be updated but wasn't sure about the OS but since the carriers usually push out the updates, I figured I would not be able to update the OS. I have been told Samsung has a mp3 player and I may go that route. I didn't realize they had a stand alone...

    Using Samsung Galaxy for just a mp3 player without activation

    I appreciate your help. I just think it will be more convenient to have a player that I can leave in my car and don't have to keep unplugging and taking out of the cradle. The cradle is plastic and not the sturdiest thing. So that is why I thought it would be more convenient if I had a...

    Using Samsung Galaxy for just a mp3 player without activation

    No, I realize I can use my phone for both. I've been using it as a mp3 player and gps at the same time. But.... when I get a call I have to stretch to reach the phone, disconnect power and phone jack and get it out of the cradle. Very dangerous when driving. My dad is very ill and in nursing...

    Using Samsung Galaxy for just a mp3 player without activation

    I didn't know where to post this. Hope it is in the correct forum. I'm looking for a mp3 player for my car. I usually use my Verizon Note 2 to play my music but due to ill parents need to keep phone ready for call. So I'm looking for a mp3 player. Don't want an Ipod. Really like my Samsung...

    Need way to read DRM epub ebooks on Xoom

    Xoom folders When I plug my Xoom into my computer in my "My Computer" directory, the Xoom shows up as a hard drive named "Xoom". Then under Xoom is a sub-folder named "device storage". But if I open Adobe Digital Reader the Xoom will not show up as a hard drive. My Tab showed up as a hard...

    Need way to read DRM epub ebooks on Xoom

    Thanks for the response I think I either am doing something wrong or maybe its the websites. I get books from my local library and Christianbook.com. They have to be opened in Adobe Digital Edition. That is the only way to open them. With the Tab (and my mom's ebook reader) when you use the...

    Need way to read DRM epub ebooks on Xoom

    I previously had the Galaxy Tab and used Adilko reader as my ebook reader for DRM epub books I rented from the library and purchased from a website. Then I exchanged the Tab for the Xoom. I believe a smart move as I love the Xoom but the one thing I bought a tablet for was to read my ebooks...

    I did a search and didn't see this so hope I'm not repeating this. I have the original Incredible 1. It has been an awesome phone but now it is not charging right and the battery is getting extremely hot. Also I have a lot of dropped calls but I also live in a concrete block home. I am...

    Google Navigation only taking main roads

    I use google maps/navigation all the time. I even use it if I know where I'm going to get an eta to where I'm going or if there is traffic I need to go around. The problem is that Google usually only takes main highways and such. I know it takes me out of the way sometimes (if it happens to be...

    I have a HTC Incredible. Not rooted and really don't want to unless that is absolutely the only way to get this to connect to my new Archos 101, Gen 8 with bluetooth 2.1.

    Displaying your Droid on your Stationary GPS

    I have the Lexus RX330 with the GPS in it. Because it is a 2005 it is not the most advanced GPS. But I was wondering if there was a way to display incoming/outgoing phone calls on the screen. And it would be wonderful if it was possible to display the music player and the GPS on the screen...

    Switching from Moto Droid1 to Incredible

    Okay, I'm switching from a Moto Droid 1 to an HTC Incrdible. I have done a Sprite back up on my sd card. Then it dawned on me that I am also backing up the Droid system settings. So if I switch my sd card to Dinc and do the restore it might mess up the Dinc. Is this true or do you think it is...

    Backing up 3rd party app data

    I've read all these posts regarding backing up. I've tried several back up programs but my question is, I know it backs up the app but do the programs back up the actual data within the program? I.E. a OI Shopper, I have a shopping list that I have scanned the barcodes for the list. I don't...

    So many choices not enough money!

    Thank you PhxBlue. That was very nice of you to take the time to share your opinion with me. Yea, if I bought a phone right now it would be the X but now I'm a little intrigued by the Samsung Fascinate but really intrigued by the HTC coming out. I just am an impatient person. I get so...
